Looking for opinion on Tomcat install

[carljenkins]

I have installed Tomcat in /usr/local/tomcat/tomcat-version/

I also have eclipse installed and a workspace directory that gets created in /home/me/ where I can create my webapps. But the problem is everytime I want to fire up the browser to check it out i have to long in to "su" into the console the the cp the directory to the tomcat webapps directory.

This to me seems like a lot of work. Is there a better way to do this?

chown user /directory you want usr to own

replace user with the user you were logged in as

and also do this as root.

if your afraid of ruining things and you have kde

open the directory in kde as root then right click on the dir then change permisions to the user you want to use it be sure to check the apply to all contents box(or what ever the equivilant is)
